December 2, 2012 - Something interesting on the nose--cinnamon or sweet a bit? Warm apples? The flavor is good; accessible sweetness and dark, plum fruit. Stands up well to food. Very drinkable well into the night.

October 17, 2011 - OK/Good – clear dark ruby purple appearance; fruit and oak/vanilla on nose; off-dry; mid/high acidity; full body; high tannins; long mouth drying finish; very fruity and oaky; dark fruits (blackberries/dark cherries/black currant) with oaky vanilla flavours. Bit too oaky and tannic. Needs a longer decant as per last time.
